I finally made some nice shiny aluminium chips - so many chips, what a mess, but what a result!

Well done! It's always a combination of fear and excitement when you first hit the 'Go' button!

Don't get too carried away trying to do big cuts. You will break cutters (ask me how I know). Focus on getting you air set up properly first. Cutting ally generates a lot of heat, and if you don't clear those chips and keep the part and tool temps down it will clog the cutter and then break. Also the bigger the cut you try to do the more rigid the machine needs to be and that isn't a rigid machine.

Air is already in (since this video was shot) :) Milo can cut MUCH deeper than I did - I did 0.5mm step down and folks are doing 1.5 - 2mm step down (with a 6mm endmil). Folks are also cutting mild steel with their Milo, but yes, I hear you, and though I don't want to have to wait 45mins for a conveyor bracket, I also don't need one in 10mins ;)

@@UnexpectedMaker not so much if the motor / cutter will cut it, but whether it will cut it accurately. The deeper / more aggressive the cut, the more side load that is placed on the cutter / spindle. Too much load can start to flex the frame and cause out spec cutting.

So as well as an Electronic Engineer, you are also a Mechanical Engineer. Cool.

touch issues are probably the move to Wayland. You can switch back to Xorg in raspi-config

You'll find that having all of those nooks and crannies is a detriment. Those chips will get everywhere and will bind up the mechanisms. You should treat the chips like water and provided barriers. Your Y slide is in grave danger with the exposed bearing slides and acme screw.

Yup, I am aware - The community are looking for solutions for this - possibly custom bellows etc.
